He paused for a moment: "If... it really doesn't work, we have to publish the statement of severing ties in the newspaper before the case is settled. Wanying and I absolutely cannot drag you two down with us."
Lu Huai'an glanced at Su Wantang and nodded.
They remained silent the entire way.
Back in the compound, after greeting the two men, Su Zhichen slumped back to his room.
Looking at his hunched back and the gray hairs at his temples, Su Wantang's eyes welled up with tears.
But there's no room for maneuver in Song Wanying's case.
Thinking of her past life, Su Wantang wished she could kill Song Wanying! Imprisonment was actually too lenient for her!
Lu Huai'an put his arm around Su Wantang and led her into the house, then closed the door.
"Tangtang, what do you think of what Dad just said?"
Su Wantang's eyes instantly turned dangerous: "What do you mean? Do you want me to find a way to rescue Song Wanying?"
Lu Huai'an did not deny it: "Yes, I think my father-in-law makes a good point."
A mother who went to prison became a stain on Su Wantang's life.
Song Wanying is not worthy of it, nor does she deserve it.
"Lu Huai'an!" Su Wantang growled.
The back of the delivery was mercilessly stabbed, and Su Wantang's eyes turned frighteningly red. The surging killing intent within them made Lu Huai'an unable to help but turn his head.
Lu Huai'an couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that the favoritism and neglect from childhood could make Tangtang want to kill her mother-in-law, Song Wanying?
After all, although his father-in-law was quite useless, his heart was definitely with Tangtang. Logically speaking, Tangtang shouldn't have such a strong reaction.
This situation is more like an irreconcilable feud between those who killed their father and mother.
"Tangtang, let me finish what I have to say."
"I won't listen. Get out of here. I don't want to see you."
Lu Huai'an emphasized, "Tangtang, we've said before that we should talk things out and resolve any conflicts."
"Moreover, even when a judge pronounces a death sentence, the convict will be given an opportunity to make a statement."
"Tangtang, believe me, my heart belongs to you."
"If it weren't for you, Song Wanying would be nothing more than a stranger to me."
This made Su Wantang laugh.
Eyes blinded by hatred have regained some clarity.
Hearing the soft chuckle, Lu Huai'an breathed a sigh of relief. He pleaded pitifully, "Wife, can you give your man a chance to speak?"
Su Wantang feigned seriousness: "Speak!"
"If you don't speak well, I don't want you!"
Lu Huai'an stretched out his long arm and pulled Su Wantang into his arms, his tone cold: "Say what you just said again?"
Su Wantang instinctively sensed danger and knew that she couldn't afford to offend men these days, so she coaxed her, "I didn't say anything."
"Are you going to talk or not? If you don't, your chance is gone!"
Lu Huai'an's deep voice rang in her ears as he analyzed the current situation for Su Wantang bit by bit.
The pros and cons of sending Song Wanying to prison.
Disadvantage: She will have to live with the title of "murderer's daughter" from now on, because rumors will only develop in the direction that people like to imagine.
Su Zhichen will always think about Song Wanying, and their relationship will reach a new level once Song Wanying is released from prison.
Moreover, having suffered so much, Song Wanying will be even more unable to give up her husband Su Zhichen, and the glory that you, her outstanding daughter, will bring her a few years later.
You can have some peace and quiet for a few years.
After hearing Lu Huai'an's words, Su Wantang felt like a complete fool, having wasted all her time and effort.
Su Wantang retorted, "So I'm just going to submit to Huo Qing for nothing, all to save Song Wanying?"
"Grandpa Huo?"
Seeing that Lu Huai'an was unaware, Su Wantang briefly recounted what had happened.
"I will handle this matter."
Without elaborating on this, Lu Huai'an gently pinched Su Wantang's nose and said affectionately, "Tangtang, you're on the right track, you should start with Song Wanying, but you're too hasty."
“We can’t send Song Wanying to jail, but we can use this as a pretext.”
"What's the meaning?"
Just as Lu Huai'an was about to explain, there was a knock on the door, and Aunt Wang's voice came through the closed door.
"Wantang, someone who calls himself Fu Jing is calling you."
"Fu Jing? Why did he call me?" Su Wantang couldn't help but mutter.
Lu Huai'an, feeling a little jealous, remarked, "Wow, my wife is so charming, all the other women are coming to our door."
Unable to stand Lu Huai'an's sarcastic tone, Su Wantang slid off Lu Huai'an's lap, opened the door, and went to answer the phone.
"Comrade Su, the Qian Peng family has dropped the case. Your mother can go home after she finishes giving the rest of her statement."
After saying that, the other end of the phone hung up.
Seeing that Su Wantang's expression was off, Lu Huai'an, who had been standing at a distance to give her some privacy, walked over and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
Before Su Wantang could speak, the phone rang again.
It was Yue Tao calling.
"Sister-in-law, something's happened."
